I noticed that unpickling mapping type instances led to infinite recursion. This happened when I tried to cache search results in Django (using django.core.cache).
Reproducing the problem:
# mt is a mapping type instance
import pickle
pickled = pickle.dumps(mt, 2)
unpickled = pickle.loads(pickled)
This should lead to a RuntimeError because of the infinite recursion. The fix prevents this from happening.
